Red is the most celebrated colour in Indian culture. It is the colour of fertility and newness, the colour of the feminine essence, and naturally the most bridal of all colours. The one you see on this page is a statement baked red colour, hemmed in by the gold of the narrow weave along the border. Indeed, red is the dominant colour of the Indian trousseau no matter the region or season, and together with gold this one makes for a definitive bridal number. Zooming in on the border would allow you to appreciate the ultra-feminine, auspicious motifs that the gold thread has been woven in against the luscious base fabric.

While the sarees to be worn on the eve of the phere and other all-important rituals are usually chosen by Indian brides to be on the heavier side in terms of fabric and embroidery, this one is more fit to be worn during post-wedding occasions in the day such as the ritual greeting of relatives and breaking in in the kitchen. It is made of pure silk of the crepe variety, a superbly comfortable fabric to be draped in tropical summer climes. The translucence of the fabric would add to the seductiveness of the drape.
